Since the little porpoise was diagnosed with a milk allergy, allergens have become one of my biggest pre-occupations and neurosis. While her diet is basically just Soy formula and rice cereal right now, it's been very easy to manage the milk allergy. My bigger concern is that I somehow created an allergic kid. What allergies have yet to be discovered? Mostly, I fear the peanut allergy.
My husband's love for peanut butter borders on obsessive. He eats it all the time - peanut butter on English muffins for breakfast, peanut butter granola bars for snacks and peanut butter ice cream for dessert. His favorite part of the holidays - Reeses Peanut Butter Christmas Trees.
Now, while he's chowing on peanut butter by the spoonful and showering the Little Porpoise with loving kisses and playful zerberts, one news story sticks in my mind - the girl who kissed her boyfriend after he ate a PB&J and died!
